Details

I already have one email account setup in mozilla, which seems to work fine. Though whenever I start the mail client the account manager shows up as a blank window with buttons. None of the buttons seem to do anything except for the cancel button. Whenever I click on the "New Account" button in the account setup window this same blank window shows up. I would really like to be able to create more accounts.
Can you specify which build you are using? We have some bugs with the account manager coming up blank, but I think they are now fixed.
from reporter via email: "M17 binary for Linux off of the servers" by chance, did you ever click on a news URL? I'm wondering if you are seeing bug http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48438.
from reporter: "Yes, that is the exact bug. I used the work around listed there and it all works again. I can even create new accounts once again. I guess you now have a data point of it also effecting the Linux builds." I will mark this a dupe of that bug then. Thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 48438 ***

more from reporter: "While I am thinking about it, I now remember when it started to happen. I clicked on a news url on accident, since I don't have a news server from here I cancelled the newsetup. It started happening at that point. More interesting is that I later setup the mozilla newserver so I could read news from the developement newsgroups. This news server was the one with valid set to false in prefs.js file. I get news fine from this server, and there is no reason for it not to be marked as valid. It seems once you cancel one news server setup all the setups after that fail to be marked valid."
